Before we can even consider silently communicating between the three of us, Talon turns back to Hades with his shoulders rolled back and his hands clenched at his sides. “It appeared on Harmonia’s arm earlier today.”

The four of us pause, my heart ready to lurch from my chest as I spy Alexi’s face reddening that the truth so easily slipped from Talon’s lips, but he doesn’t understand. Talon and I, we’ve sealed our souls to this woman, we know the fucking difference, how it makes us feel inside, and if we have to concede some information to help her, then we fucking will.

Hades moves the vial into the same hand as the flesh before snapping his fingers, making both objects disappear from sight. “Harmonia, as in Rhea’s best friend Harmonia?” he asks slowly, and the three of us nod in response. “As in, Rhea whose soul is sealed to my son’s, Adonis?”

“Yeah,” I murmur as Talon clears his throat, and I know what he’s going to say before he even opens his mouth.

“She’s also our sealed soul.”

That fact makes Hades’s eyes widen in surprise, catching him off guard for the first time in forever as he wipes a hand down his face before looking at us with a hint of uncertainty flashing in his eyes. He knows we learned who our sealed soul was and he knows we returned to him to face our new lives alone.

He never asked who it was and we never divulged the information. Until now.

“Well, fuck.”
